Ukraine's SBU released footage from a drone strike targeting a Russian Ilyushin Il-38N anti-submarine warfare aircraft stationed at the Yeysk Air Base in southern Russia. The attack reportedly took place before the SBU operation in the Russian port of Novorossiysk, which targeted the Improved Kilo-class diesel-electrical submarine earlier in December. The Il-38 strike was aimed at lowering the possibility of detection of a Ukrainian Sea Baby unmanned underwater vessel (UUV) that was used during the Novorossiysk operation. According to the SBU, "To hit the Il-38N, the SBU used a modern drone with an above-the-ground explosive warhead equipped with two thousand downward-directed explosives. The explosion occurred directly above the main equipment and radar compartment, and also damaged the engine."

The Giant American Manta Ray The Manta Ray is, without exaggeration, the most fascinating underwater drone ever built. Since I’ve been talking a lot about the seas lately and new Chinese technologies, it’s worth remembering that the United States is finalizing tests on something truly groundbreaking. Imagine a metal manta ray with a 14-meter wingspan and weighing nearly 30 tons that can be launched from any pier in the world and then simply disappears for months, or even years without ever needing a mother ship, refueling, or a crew. It glides through the ocean in absolute silence, carrying tons of sensors, mines, torpedoes, and electronic warfare equipment. It can hibernate on the seabed when it wants to save energy and surface when it needs to receive orders via satellite. This giant can deploy smaller units connected by fiber-optic cables or using acoustic communication. Estimates suggest it could travel 18,000 km or more with solid-state batteries. The secret lies in its hybrid propulsion system: the primary mode is buoyancy-driven gliding. It fills ballast tanks with seawater, dives at an angle, then expels the water and rises, converting vertical motion into horizontal forward movement with almost zero energy consumption most of the time. Only a few minutes of pump operation are needed per cycle. When it needs to maneuver quickly or sprint, it switches to conventional propellers. This combination enables autonomy that can last years, especially because the vehicle has energy-harvesting systems that capture power from the ocean’s thermal gradient (warm surface water, cold deep water) and possibly from ocean currents too. It’s a technological marvel unlike anything we’ve seen before in the military domain. The vehicle is transported in standard shipping containers and can be assembled in the field in just a few days and this means the United States can deploy it anywhere in the world without relying on large naval bases. When it enters operational service (expected between 2028 and 2032), the U.S. Navy will gain a capability far beyond any current UUV. The Manta Ray doesn’t need to return, makes no noise, leaves no logistical trace, and can loiter for extended periods waiting for orders or simply monitoring key routes. But it’s not all smooth sailing. Chinese researchers from Northwestern Polytechnical University claim they have been developing biomimetic manta ray UUVs since 2006, with six prototypes ranging from 10 to 700 kg. According to them, in 2023 a 460 kg prototype successfully passed a 1,025-meter depth test in the South China Sea, and multiple variants have completed 60-day underwater gliding missions. That’s still a much shorter endurance than the American prototype has demonstrated so far, possibly because the objectives aren’t identical. My impression is that these are somewhat different projects. While the Chinese appear to focus mainly on swarm-capable units (with potential applications in underwater reconnaissance, anti-submarine, and anti-ship tasks), the Americans are developing a single large platform optimized for long-term persistent monitoring. The U.S. project is a 30-ton drone; the Chinese ones are 10–700 kg. China also claims that in 2025 it began testing swarms of these vehicles near coral reef areas, suggesting the start of a direct race with the Americans. The fact is that more and more unmanned underwater vehicles are emerging every day, and they will pose a major threat, especially to large manned submarines. A small 100 kg UUV could damage the rudder, propeller, or another critical point of a multi-billion-dollar nuclear submarine. After a series of canceled programs in recent years, the Pentagon desperately needs a big, innovative success like the Manta Ray to reinforce its reputation for effective program management.

AgiBot’s new generation of industrial-grade interactive embodied robot, AgiBot G2, has officially launched! The G2 has already secured orders worth hundreds of millions of RMB, including two separate contracts each exceeding 100 million RMB, and has begun its first commercial deliveries. The AgiBot G2 is built to industrial standards, featuring high-performance joints, precision torque sensors, and an advanced spatial perception system. It supports rapid learning and deployment, offers strong multimodal voice interaction, and is designed for general use in industrial, logistics, and guidance scenarios. Inheriting the successful "Collect-Train-Deploy" model of its predecessor, the G1, the G2 brings significant upgrades, including a high-performance AI computing platform and actuators that enable omnidirectional obstacle avoidance and high-precision force-control tasks. Its 3-DOF waist allows for human-like bending and lateral body movement. A key feature is the G2's globally first-of-its-kind cross-shaped wrist force-control arm, which uses precision joint torque sensors and joint impedance control to delicately perceive external forces and respond smoothly. For continuous operation, the G2 supports autonomous charging and features a dual-battery hot-swapping system, meeting the 24-hour cycle demands of factory production lines. During the launch event, AgiBot demonstrated the G2’s ultra-low latency remote operation (teleoperation) capabilities. Operators successfully demonstrated precision shots (like hitting a floating balloon in Shanghai while operating from Beijing), showcasing the robot's high accuracy and low latency in both line-of-sight and beyond-line-of-sight scenarios. The G2 is already being deployed across four key real-world scenarios: In automotive parts production, it assists humans with tasks like safety belt lock core pressing and material handling. In precision operations, it used reinforcement learning to master delicate tasks like inserting memory sticks in just one hour. In logistics, the G2, enhanced by AgiBot's OmniHand dexterous hand, efficiently handles various package types for sorting and loading. Its strong mobility allows it to adapt to over 95% of factory floors. AgiBot is also commencing the first batch of commercial deliveries under an over 100 million RMB procurement contract with Joyson Electronic, formally landing the G2 in the automotive parts manufacturing sector.

🚨🇨🇳China's Underwater Data Centers: Huge Win in the AI Power Race Deep under the South China Sea, China just took a major step toward AI supremacy. 🔸From Navy Tech to Commercial Compute China has launched its first commercial underwater data center off Hainan Island. Sitting 35 meters below the surface, the Hailanxin-built facility connects to shore via submarine cable and already serves AI and big data clients. Hainan Telecom and Atlas are online now. Tencent, Alibaba, and Pinduoduo will join later this year. Each massive 1,300-ton pod uses smart seawater cooling to achieve an impressive PUE of 1.07 — far more efficient than most land-based centers. 🔸Tech Roots That Matter Hailanxin wasn’t starting from scratch. The company once supplied intelligent systems to the Chinese Navy, with deep expertise in marine tech and seabed operations. In 2019, it acquired Canadian deep-sea firm OceanWorks and teamed up with China National Offshore Oil Corporation to build the pressure vessels. This blend of naval know-how and commercial ambition turned Microsoft’s earlier underwater experiment into a working, scalable reality — built for speed and cost advantage in the AI race. 🔸Why This Gives China a Real Edge By placing high-power servers directly in the ocean, China gains natural cooling without expensive infrastructure. The result: cheaper, denser, and more reliable compute capacity exactly when global AI demand is exploding. With plans for 100 pods delivering 50–100 megawatts, Beijing is positioning itself to export low-cost AI processing power worldwide. This underwater strategy strengthens China’s overall tech infrastructure and accelerates its push for leadership in artificial intelligence.

(SDAL) demonstrated "Bhargavastra", an indigenous, vehicle-mounted, multi-layered Counter-Swarm Drone System designed to provide affordable and highly effective protection against the rapidly growing threat of weaponised drones, loitering munitions and autonomous drone swarms. Developed entirely in India, Bhargavastra represents a major technological breakthrough in counter-drone warfare and reflects SDAL's vision of anticipating the future character of conflict well before drones emerged as one of the most decisive battlefield weapons. The system employs indigenously designed and developed unguided rockets and precision micro-missiles arranged in a multi-layer engagement architecture, providing a highly effective yet economical means of neutralising hostile UAVs. It has also been designed for seamless integration with the existing Command, Control, Communication and Intelligence (C4I) networks of the Indian Armed Forces, enabling its employment in future network-centric operations. Engineered specifically for Indian operational conditions, Bhargavastra is capable of deployment across deserts, plains and mountainous terrain up to 5,000 metres above mean sea level, providing reliable protection against aerial threats along the country's entire land borders. The Command-and-Control Centre incorporates an advanced C4I architecture integrating a radar capable of detecting UAVs up to 10 km, an Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) surveillance system and passive RF sensors. These sensors provide multi-layer target detection, tracking and classification, generating a comprehensive air situation picture and enabling operators to engage either individual drones or coordinated drone swarms. Unlike conventional soft-kill systems based on jamming or spoofing, Bhargavastra provides an effective hard-kill solution against autonomous drones that are immune to electronic countermeasures. A team of Indian Army visited SDAL, Nagpur on 24th July 2026 as part of Status review against a PSO under make-II The Bhargavastra weapon system, in its full configuration comprising a Command & Control Vehicle (CCV) equipped with Radar, EO/IR and RF detectors integrated with the C4I system, along with a launcher vehicle carrying all the launch tubes, was demonstrated. The SDAL team flew a swarm of drones, which was successfully detected by the Radar, EO/IR and RF detectors. The C4I system displayed the complete situational awareness picture and generated a drone attack alert. The launcher was then assigned the targets by the C4I system, and the complete firing sequence was successfully demonstrated to the visiting team. Actual rocket firing was not carried out within the plant premises due to safety considerations.

Double trouble: ‘World’s first’ laser-armed tank jams and fries drones mid-air | Kapil Kajal, Interesting Engineering The ALKA DEWS is a hybrid air defense system made for close-range combat. Turkey has introduced the ALKA-KAPLAN, a hybrid tracked vehicle that has a directed energy weapon system to fight drone threats on the battlefield. This is the first system of its kind and will be officially shown at IDEF 2025, highlighting Ankara’s effort to use modern technologies in its armored vehicles and to deal with the rise of unmanned aerial systems. Zapping drones with lasers after jamming them Developed through a collaboration between FNSS and ROKETSAN, the ALKA-KAPLAN combines the KAPLAN HYBRID tracked platform with the ALKA Directed Energy Weapon System (DEWS). The integration responds to a key need in modern military forces: mobile, armored platforms that can fight against drones while working alongside tanks and infantry vehicles in challenging environments. The ALKA-KAPLAN represents a major change in Turkey’s defense approach. Instead of traditional air defense systems, this approach uses electromagnetic jamming and strong lasers to target drones, helicopters, and other flying weapons. The ALKA DEWS is a hybrid air defense system made for close-range combat. It uses an electromagnetic jamming system to interfere with enemy actions and a high-energy laser to destroy targets. This combination enables ALKA to neutralize a wide spectrum of asymmetric aerial threats, including fixed-wing and rotary-wing mini/micro UAVs and loitering munitions, before they can damage frontline assets. The ALKA DEWS architecture includes artificial intelligence-assisted tracking and threat identification, allowing rapid detection and elimination of UAVs and improvised explosive devices. The system can be set up in different ways: fixed, mobile, or portable. This allows it to protect urban areas, open land, or convoys. The KAPLAN HYBRID Powerpack powers this system, which was first shown as a concept in 2023. Hybrid powerpack FNSS designed the high-kilowatt generator to drive the vehicle and provide sufficient energy to power high-consumption systems like ALKA. This eliminates the need for auxiliary power units and enables extended silent operation, which is vital for stealth and reconnaissance missions. ALKA-KAPLAN’s powerpack design was entirely developed by FNSS engineers using a combination of indigenously produced and locally sourced subsystems. The hybrid propulsion architecture improves fuel efficiency, reduces thermal signature, and increases the vehicle’s operational range by over 10% when the generator operates in standby. The ALKA system can disrupt UAVs that use advanced guidance technologies, including GPS-denied navigation and image-assisted targeting. ROKETSAN has emphasized that ALKA’s layered defense, combining electronic warfare and directed energy, offers a cost-effective and scalable response to drone saturation attacks. ALKA can help neutralize threats from the air, roadside bombs, improvised explosive devices (IEDs), and unexploded bombs in combat zones. This project is part of Turkey’s larger plan to rely less on foreign defense technologies, especially high-energy weapons and vehicle drivetrains. FNSS’s development of a locally produced cross-drive gearbox, a critical component often sourced from a handful of global suppliers, positions the firm among a select few with end-to-end capability for tracked vehicle systems. The ALKA-KAPLAN is designed for up to 20 tons of platforms and can be adapted for future tracked vehicle programs or modernization projects. Read more:

🚨🇷🇺 NATO IN PANIC: RUSSIA’S FIRST ZIRCON-ARMED NUCLEAR SUBMARINE IS ENTERING SERVICE Russia’s Project 885M nuclear submarine Perm is expected to complete trials and join the Navy before the end of 2026. It will be Russia’s first multipurpose nuclear submarine built from the outset to carry Zircon hypersonic cruise missiles as standard armament. 🔸 The Yasen-M combines the concealment and endurance of a nuclear-powered attack submarine with Russia’s most advanced naval strike weapons. Its arsenal includes Zircon, Kalibr and Oniks missiles for attacks against warships and targets deep inland. 🔸 The submarine has a submerged displacement of around 13,800 tonnes, reaches 31 knots underwater, can dive to 520 metres and remain at sea for up to 100 days. 🔸 Zircon reaches speeds of around Mach 9 and can strike sea and land targets at ranges exceeding 1,000 km. Its speed leaves defending forces only minutes to detect the launch, identify the target and attempt an interception. 🔸 The missile has already been successfully launched from beneath the surface, but Perm turns that tested capability into the standard armament of an operational submarine rather than a launch from an adapted trial platform. 🔸 Surface ships carrying hypersonic missiles can be tracked by satellites, aircraft and patrol vessels. A Yasen-M can remain hidden beneath the ocean, change its firing position and attack from an unexpected direction. 🔸 The same submarine can hunt carrier groups and other major warships while holding naval bases, ports, command centres and infrastructure on land at risk. Finding Perm will be NATO’s first problem. Stopping its missiles after launch will be the second — and at Mach 9, the alliance may have only minutes to solve it. Does NATO have an answer to a Mach 9 missile launched from beneath the ocean?

"Justice Mission 2025" military drills reinforce a red line that must not be crossed The Chinese People's Liberation Army (PLA) Eastern Theater Command continued its "Justice Mission 2025" military drills around Taiwan Island for the second consecutive day on December 30, 2025. Starting early in the morning, destroyers, frigates, fighters and bombers sent by the Chinese PLA Eastern Theater Command conducted drills involving identification, warning and expulsion, strikes on hostile vessels, fleet air defense, and anti-submarine warfare from air and in the waters to the north and south of Taiwan. During the drills, H-6K bombers simulated precision strikes against designated targets in Taiwan. The operation was intended to test the troops' capability of joint operations and regional blockade. On Tuesday afternoon, a flotilla sent by the Chinese PLA Southern Theater Command and led by an amphibious assault ship worked with destroyers, frigates and drones of the PLA Eastern Theater Command to conduct joint drills including rapid landing operations and the seizure of key ports in the waters to the east of Taiwan. On the ground, two troop units equipped with Long-range Multiple Launch Rocket Systems executed live-fire drills, covering the waters to the north and south of Taiwan. All these operations achieved desired effects, according to the PLA Eastern Theater Command. Tuesday's drills demonstrated that the Chinese PLA possesses formidable capabilities to cut off the lifeline of energy and resource imports for Taiwan authorities at any time, thereby destroying their separatist agenda, said Zhang Chi, a professor at the Chinese PLA National Defense University, "The PLA can strike whenever it chooses to strike, and its firepower package can be delivered right to where the separatists are," he added. A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said that the drills are intended to deter separatist forces on the island, who are trying to build up the island's military capabilities by purchasing US arms in their pursuit of "Taiwan independence". The military drills are meant to instill into the minds of the "provocateurs, saboteurs of peace and warmongers" on the island the costly consequences "of turning Taiwan into a powder keg". The Taiwan question is at the very core of China's core interests, and the drills reinforce a red line that must not be crossed. Attempts to arm the secessionists as part of a bid to contain China will only bring conflict closer. #PLA #Taiwan #JusticeMission2025 #正义使命2025 #ChinaMilitary #ChinaMilBugle #EasternTheaterCommand

In two predawn operations today, the Coast Guard conducted back-to-back meticulously coordinated boarding of two “ghost fleet” tanker ships— one in the North Atlantic Sea and one in international waters near the Caribbean. Both vessels —the Motor Tanker Bella I and the Motor Taker Sophia—were either last docked in Venezuela or en route to it. Under President Trump’s bold and visionary leadership, US Coast Guard tactical teams worked closely with its counterparts at the Departments of War, Department of Justice and State and used their specialized expertise to conduct these operations and conduct two safe, effective boardings within hours of each other. One of these tankers, Motor Tanker Bella I, has been trying to evade the Coast Guard for weeks, even changing its flag and painting a new name on the hull while being pursued, in a desperate and failed attempt to escape justice. The heroic crew of the USCGC Munro pursued this vessel across the high seas and through treacherous storms— keeping diligent watch, and protecting our country with the determination and patriotism that make Americans proud. These brave men and women deserve our nation’s thanks for their selfless devotion to duty. The world’s criminals are on notice. You can run, but you can’t hide. We will never relent in our mission to protect the American people and disrupt the funding of narco terrorism wherever we find it, period. This is our country’s greatest fighting force at their best. This is America first at sea.
